Giveaway: Syndrome E

This giveaway has ended. The winner will be announced shortly…

The Viking Press has provided a copy of Franck Thilliez and Mark Polizzotti’s book Syndrome E as a giveaway for The Booklover! The classic procedural meets cutting-edge science in this international bestseller. Syndrome E tells the story of detective Lucle Hennebelle, whose friend has developed a case of spontaneous blindness after watching an obscure film from the 1950s. Hennebelle enlists the aid of Inspector Sharko, who has connected the film to five murders. Soon the two find themselves in the middle of a conspiracy that crosses politics, religion, science, and art while also crossing the globe.

My favorite True crime thriller is Truman Capote’s In Cold Blood (1966). The author spent months in the Midwest painstakingly retracing the steps of two young rural killers — and then wrote about it chillingly.
